SOAPBOX TIME *steps up on soapbox, taps mic, clears throat* I have a question today… and I’m on my soap box… Sorry Why do we care that Britney Spears shaved her head over the weekend and had 2 tattoos and that Anna Nicole Smith slept with so many men that she had no idea who the father of her baby was when we have soldiers dying every day in another country? Is the freakin media so desperate for news that we have to constantly hear this about Britney and Anna Nicole? I’ve heard some say one reason that maybe the reason we are hearing so much about Britney Spears is that she is a role model for so many young girls. WAKE UP CALL!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!! IF THIS IS A ROLE MODEL FOR YOU DAUGHTERS….YOU NEED TO BE DUMMY SLAPPED…YOU NEED MAKE SURE YOUR DAUGHTER HAS ANOTHER TYPE OF ROLE MODEL. Now I’m not the one to tell you who should be a role model for you daughter but for Pete’s sake… NOT BRITNEY SPEARS…. Let’s look at someone like Condoleezza Rice. Rice is the first African American woman and second woman (after Madeline Albright) to serve as Secretary of State. Before joining the Bush administration, she was a Professor of political science at Stanford University. I could go on and on about this great woman. Let’s also look Nancy Pelosi. Pelosi is the 60th and current Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. She also is the first woman, first Californian, and first Italian American in U. S. History to hold the office. I could go on and on also about this great woman. If there should be an outside person as a role model then in my opinion, both of these women have accomplished a task that no other woman has accomplished but has also set forth the road for our young women of tomorrow. But most importantly YOU, THE MOTHER, should be the role model for you daughter, but not only your daughter but your son also. God's Word says, "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much" (Luke 16:10). Kids see adult role models as examples of what it takes to get ahead in the real world. *steps down off soapbox* Thank you.
